CRUSTY DEMONS ARTICLES

June 30, 2006 - The end of each month signifies a variety of milestones across everyone's lives. People are getting their paychecks, making resolutions, doing their laundry, going grocery shopping, cleaning their gutters, and possibly celebrating with a frosty beverage. In keeping with the theme of closure, we here at IGN amass from our vast library of green-boxed games the ones that came out over the past month and determine which one is the reigning champ.

June 26, 2006 - Crusty Demons: Freestyle Moto X is one of those games that, after playing, makes you want to punch the floor. There are a few elements in this game that make it mindlessly addicting. With more work and better features, this could actually have been a good game. As it stands, however, the most entertaining parts of Crusty Demons have little to do with the actual game. It isn't that fun to play if you're trying to complete objectives, unlock bikes, levels, and extras, and finish the story. If you're more willing to sit for hours catapulting your rider off his bike and giggling as his face splatters against the ground, then you might actually want to play this.

June 6, 2006 - Absurd name aside, Crusty Demons is basically a Tony Hawk clone. With motorbikes. And mini pimp cars. And broken neck bonuses, blood streaks, and demon-contract induced immortality. The game starts off with a group of bikers selling their souls to the devil in exchange for eternal life. These bikers include real life riders like Dan Pastor, Seth Enslow, Ronny Faisst, and Kenny Bartram. Though they can't die, they can get hurt, really badly. Self-injury actually factors into the gameplay, building your nitro meter.
